OMG!!!!!11one!1!!1!!! Sexism and elitism!!!1eleven!!!!
This simmering resentment is common and pervasive in our culture right now. The idea that women with a “major education†think they’re better than everyone else, have a great sense of entitlement, feel they deserve special treatment, and are too out of touch with the lives of “normal†women to have a legitimate point of view, is a 21st-century version of the long-held belief that education makes women uppity and leads them to forget their rightful place.And who is responsible for this outrage? You guessed it...
It’s precisely the kind of thinking that has fueled Sarah Palin’s unlikely — and continued — ability to pass herself off as the consummately “real†American woman. (And it is what has made it possible for her supporters to discredit other women’s criticism of her as elitist cat fighting.)Yeah. Someone (who has the double X thing going for her) actually went there.
You've regressed a long way, baby.

Maybe this is what Obama meant when he promised to "save or create" jobs.

Given Bob Shrum's Detroit Lions-esque record of FAIL, seeing him defend Obamanomics instantly means it's doomed for the ashbin of history. But, the humorous part of his recent defense of The Messiah is that he cites the anti-Obama.
Look, this--Reagan went through this. Reagan went through this in 1981 and, in fact, his approval rating, by the way, at this time was exactly the same as Obama's is today. And...And Republicans, Republicans stayed with him. They stayed despite the difficulties in the mid-term elections. They got to 1983, the recovery came; so did morning in America and so did the confirmation of the Reagan era. The real challenge here is for Democrats. Are they going to stick with the president? Are they going to get wobbly? Are they going to get afraid?
Of course, Reagan's policies were the exact opposite of what The One wants to push, but let's not let details get in the way, shall we?. But what worries me more is should I reconsider Reagan if a complete and total fucktard loser is starting to cite him?

And the best part? No apologies would be necessary. Because, you know, that's some classic comedy right there. And though I haven't browsed the archives, I'm gonna go ahead and guess that they didn't hold Letterman to the same standard. For some reason.
Well, it's mainly because there's nothing funny about Obama. Yeah.
When he's pictured checking out someone's ass, well, there's no problem there. Right? No reason to make hay? Uh-huh.
Warning: That first link goes to Media Matters for America Obama, whose Jamison Foser should not be allowed to use the grown-up scissors.

Look. I'm in a foul, foul mood. So I'm posting the pretty and happy and pretty and did I mention hotass to make myself feel better.

Guuuuuuuuuuuh.
Also what's the point of posting Dean without posting Hot Angel?

Hot Angel is Hot.

The Bacon Explosion is two pounds of bacon and two pounds of sausage. One pound of bacon is weaved around the sausage, and a pound of fried bacon in the center, with barbecue sauce over the whole things.I beg to differ with their serving estimates. The full one serves me.
The Bacon Explosion sells for $29.99 for a full or $17.99 for a half. The full one serves 12, the half serves 6.
Anyway, aside from this being about bacon wrapped with sausage wrapped with bacon (I drooled on my keyboard just writing that), this is also about the entrepreneurial spirit of America. FUCK YEAH!
There's a brief video at the link. If you'll excuse me, I've got a flight to Kansas City to book.

I actually do miss him. There was an Oxyclean commercial on the other day and I'll admit it, I sniffled.

According to Orlando’s Local 6, Grayson was an investor in a Ponzi scheme run by the company Derivium Capital. The scheme allowed Grayson and other investors to turn over stock to Derivium in exchange for cash loans and redeem the value later if the stock prices increased.
The station cited court filings indicating that Grayson transferred about $29 million in stock to the fund, taking out about $26 million in cash. A South Carolina court ruled earlier this year that Derivium shareholders were owed about $270 million in lost profits and that Grayson’s share of that would be about $34 million.
And you know what the ultimate irony of ironies is?
He is a member of the Financial Services Committee.
Fucking hilarious/scary/whatever.

Included in the options that will be available starting in August is the Comedy for Less Traffic School, Pizza 4U Great Comedians Traffic School and the Great Comedians Traffic School.
The new offerings put Orange County on par with a number of other California counties already offering such traffic class options.
The comedy school offer a more amusing take on refreshing drivers on the rules and procedures related to driving compared with the traditional classes.
Please, Lord, tell me that a shitload of Stimulus, Bailout, California IOU Money was spent on this. Pleaaasseeee.....

The governor's lawyers told the attorney general's office in February that they planned to hire outside counsel to help with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act money. Deputy Attorney General Geoff Blue told them his office was willing to do it, but his offer was rejected.
...
A few weeks later, Ritter hired Hogan & Hartson through a no-bid contract. So far, the firm has been paid $40,000 from federal funds.
Governor Bill Ritter was a partner at Hogan & Hartson until he was elected governor in 2006.
It seems the Democrats' thinking is that it doesn't matter how the money gets spent, as long as each and every penny is gone from our pockets and future generations' pockets, and into the pockets of Democratic cronies.
On a more positive note, State Senator Josh Penry has announced that he will be running for governor in 2010. He's a fiscal conservative who doesn't believe in getting government mucked up in social issues, and has done some remarkable things in Colorado's congress, including raising school standards and standing up to labor unions. I wouldn't be surprised if he's a presidential candidate in 2020, and it will be a welcome change, as he's stated repeatedly that the GOP doesn't deserve to regain power until spending is reined in. I'm sincerely looking forward to Penry giving Ritter the Rockefeller finger on November 3 of next year.
Vid of Penry speaking at the Denver Metro Young Republicans meeting in March below the fold.
